No Line

Rick KAWANAKA

Japan2017 20min Korean Premiere

Synopsis

This looks like an all too familiar, somewhat clichéd story of rescuing a loved one kidnapped by an unidentified villain, but the multiple hidden meanings in the title of this movie, slowly but surely begin to reveal themselves.

Program Note

This movie has no line as the title suggests. It makes the audience put all five senses together even to an insignificant sound. The physical fight between the kidnapper who abducted May and June trying to save May is overlapped with maximized sounds, creating a well-regulated and stylish action scene. A surprising twist that gets revealed is a bonus. If you like this film, you are recommended to visit the website of Director Kawanaka, where some movies that will make you chill on hot summer nights are available. (HWANG Hye-min)
